I know everyone else is in a big uproar about this whole thing, so I decided to add my voice to the fray.
First off, she sang the song well, and accurately. She forgot a single line, but sang through it anyway DESPITE obviously knowing she messed up. So what's everyone making such a big deal out of? Like you haven't forgotten something before? There are actually people with the audacity to call her unpatriotic and disrespectful for "forgetting a song that I've known the words to since I was 5". and "She's so unpatriotic, she couldn't take the time to learn the words to a song".
WHAT?
What's wrong with forgetting? She sang in front of millions upon millions of people. The single biggest televised event like, EVER. She has every right in the world to be nervous and forget things. It's completely unfair of people to accuse her so viciously and hatefully because of a simple mistake.
I went on stage one time to sing the song Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer. EVERYONE has heard that song and knows that song. EVERYONE knows the first verse to it. including me. and I forgot it. I went up to the mike and forgot what I was supposed to sing.
my point is, it's very very easy to forget a song you take for granted you know. It's also easy to just plain forget stuff. It frickin happens.
For fear of becoming another Chris Crocker, I won't plead for anyone to "Leave Christina Alone", but seriously? Just think about it slowly and rationally before you open your mouth and let something stupid spill out of it. The world will be a better place if you do.
Thank you
